Polda Metro Jaya has extended Nikita Mirzani's detention period in cases of alleged threats and extortion for 40 days. The official extension is carried out per day.
"Investigators from the Metro Jaya Police Cyber Investigation from March 24 or May 40 days have extended their detention of the two suspects, namely NM's sister and IM's brother," said Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Ary Syam Indradi to reporters, Monday, March 24.
The detention extension was carried out because investigators were still developing the case. In addition, the case files of the two suspects are still in the drafting stage.
"Investigators continue to deepen and coordinate with the public prosecutor for the completeness of the case file," said Ade.
Nikita Mirzani and his assistant are known to have been named suspects. They are suspected of extorting Reza Gladys for Rp. 4 billion. Reza Gladys's report began with a problem between the complainant and Nikita Mirzani.
The artist, known as Nikmir, is said to have slandered Reza Gladys's skincare products and badminton products.
"Sister NM vilified the victim's good name and products through NM's sister TikTok live," said Ade.
Then, Reza Gladys contacted the assistant from Nikta Mirzani to two Whatsapp numbers on November 14, 2024. The goal is to stay in touch.
However, the response received was negative. Because there is a statement that is element of threat.
The reported person is said to have conveyed something to social media if he did not get money from Reza Gladys.
"So the response from the reported party is the threat of speaking up to social media if the gathering does not make money and the reported party asks for a sum of IDR 5 billion as a mouth shut up money," said Ade.
Fearing the threat, Reza Gladys was investigated for fulfilling the request. He gave up on a total of IDR 4 billion. The handover of money is done in stages.
"Because the victim felt threatened and afraid, on November 14, 2024, the victim transferred funds of Rp. 2 billion to an account in certain names under the direction of the reported party," said Ade.
